In order to give the little sun a name, Li Yuan has been wearing his reading glasses and flipping through dictionaries for the past few days.
He had a few names in mind, but Han Chen and Qian Qian were, after all, the child's parents, so he left the final decision to them.
"Chengkun, Chengjin, Chengyu, these are all good names, which one do you like?"
Ouyang Qian held her son, gently stroking his soft hair, her eyes filled with maternal love.
The arrival of this little life brought her immense joy, and choosing a good name for the child became the most important issue for the whole family.
She felt that all three names had good meanings, but couldn't make up her mind, so she looked up at the man.
"Ah Chen, which one do you think is better?"
Li Hanchen looked down at his wife and child, a happy smile on his face, and slowly spoke his thoughts.
"Chengkun, this name gives a sense of stability and strength; Chengjin, on the other hand, implies continuous progress and a positive attitude; Chengyu, as for it, sounds grand and expansive..."
"I hope our children grow up positively, optimistically, and carefree."
Ouyang Qian nodded, indicating her agreement with her husband's idea.
“I also think the name Chengjin is more suitable for our baby.”
However, she still wanted to ask her in-laws' opinions, "Mom and Dad, what do you think?"
Li Yuan laughed loudly, "Alright, let's call him Chengjin."
Looking at the couple's determined eyes, Chen Shufang smiled and said, "Then it's settled."
She gently touched her grandson's little hand, her eyes filled with affection. "Grandma's little sun has a name now, Chengjin. Do you like it?"
The little guy moved his head and grinned, which Chen Shufang interpreted as a sign of satisfaction.
She exclaimed with delight, as if she had discovered a new continent, "The child is quite satisfied with this name."
"Let Grandma hold you."
The little one remained calm and quiet in his grandmother's arms, his big, grape-like eyes fixed on her, utterly adorable.
Li Yuan watched from the side, itching to join in. His grandson usually slept, so it was rare for him to be so energetic and keep them company.
"Old woman, give me a hug."
Ouyang Qian and her husband sat opposite each other, watching her parents-in-law vying to hold the little boy, and a warm feeling welled up in their hearts.

Family compound
The sun has been blazing hot lately, making the heat unbearable.
Su Jingjing was thinking about the refreshing and delicious soybean sprouts, but she searched the entire market and no one had ever heard of soybean sprouts.
Could it be that no one knows how to sprout soybeans at this time?
"Zhao Di, have you ever eaten soybean sprouts?"
He Zhaodi thought for a moment and shook her head, "I've never seen any soybean sprouts in my life."
"Jingjing, is that stuff delicious?"
Su Jingjing smiled broadly, "It tastes pretty good when stir-fried. I'll make some and bring it to you later."
"Okay." He Zhaodi replied with a smile. Jingjing has always enjoyed experimenting with food, and she thought that even if Jingjing didn't open a clothing store, opening a restaurant would be a good idea.
Indeed, people need to have a skill to develop better.
When Su Jingjing got home, she rummaged through the kitchen and found some soybeans. These soybeans were the ones her mother-in-law had brought over last time, and they were of pretty good quality.
She soaked the selected beans for about 24 hours. The beans started to sprout the next day, at which point she poured them out and drained the water.
There are many cookie tins at home. Divide the beans into the tins, then cover them with gauze. Pour some water on the gauze just enough to wet the beans, let the beans soak for a few minutes, and then pour out the water. Do this once in the morning and once in the evening. Finally, prepare a foam box and put all the tins together, then cover them with a large gauze.
Su Jingjing clapped her hands, looking at the results of her two days of hard work. "Mission accomplished! Now all we have to do is wait quietly for them to sprout."
An'an looked at the styrofoam box curiously, "Mommy, what are these?"
"Honey, you'll be able to eat bean sprouts in a few days. Your mom spent two days preparing them."
Su Jingjing smiled broadly.
Li Hanting watched her with doting eyes from the side. No matter what his wife did, he supported her.
"Honey, do you need more soybeans? I'll go to the old house and get some."
Su Jingjing met the man's affectionate gaze, rested her chin on her hand, and smiled, "Aren't you afraid I'll ruin the soybeans at home?"
Li Hanting chuckled, "I'm not afraid, I just want you to be happy."
Su Jingjing immediately ran into his arms, hugged his neck, and said coquettishly, "Honey, you'll spoil me rotten. How sad I'll be if we break up."
Upon hearing the last sentence, the man's expression changed drastically, and a chilling aura emanated from him.
"What, you still want to break up with me?"
Su Jingjing stepped back a little and saw the man's dark face. She then realized that she had said the wrong thing and hurriedly explained.
"No, I was just saying it casually. I never thought about breaking up with you."
Fearing the man wouldn't believe her, she even held up three fingers, saying, "Really, you believe me."
Li Hanting grabbed her hand and kissed it. "Wife, don't say things like that again. My heart can't take it."
To comfort him, Su Jingjing quickly cupped the man's face and leaned in to kiss him repeatedly.
"Honey, don't be angry anymore. I want to be with you for the rest of my life."
Li Hanting corrected him seriously, "No, there's a next life, and the life after that."
"Okay, whatever you say."
An'an and Yuanyuan looked up at their parents. Although they often caught their parents kissing secretly, this was the first time they had seen it in person.
Both of them were stunned.
Su Jingjing suddenly realized something was wrong, turned her head and met the two adorable little boys' eyes, her face turning red to her ears.
